The picture on the left is a young Willie, whereas the one of the right is a more traditional one. Born Willie Hugh Nelson, April 30, 1933, in Abbott, Texas, the son of Myrle and Ira Nelson. After they separated, Willie and his sister Bobbie, were raised by their paternal grandparents. At the age of 4, he sang in church, and by the age of 7, he had written his first song. At one time, he attended Baylor University. He later became a disc jockey, and played in various honky tonks, some of which being described as being pretty wild. In the earlier days, when he went to Nashville, his music was not accepted, which led him to do things his own way, thus the Outlaw Movement, along with Waylon Jennings. He starred in the "The Electric Horseman"; "Honeysuckle Rose"; "The Songwriter" and several other movies. He's done duets with many other singers including Ray Charles, Waylon Jennings, Dolly Parton, Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson, Julio Iglesias and David Allen Coe.
